extract from 'you can win' by Shiv Khera

There was a man who made a living selling balloons at a fair. He hadall colors ofballoons, including red, yellow, blue, and green. Whenever businesswas slow, he wouldrelease a helium-filled balloon into the air and when the children sawit go up, they allwanted to buy one. They would come up to him, buy a balloon, and hissales would go upagain. He continued this process all day. One day, he felt someonetugging at his jacket.He turned around and saw a little boy who asked, "If you release ablack balloon, wouldthat also fly?" Moved by the boy's concern, the man replied withempathy, "Son, it is notthe color of the balloon, it is what is inside that makes it go up."

The same thing applies to our lives. It is what is inside that counts.The thing inside of usthat makes us go up is our attitude.Have you ever wondered why some individuals, organizations, orcountries are moresuccessful than others?It is not a secret. These people simply think and act moreeffectively. They have learnedhow to do so by investing in the most valuable asset--people. Ibelieve that the successof an individual, organization or country, depends on the quality oftheir people
